Stadol Addiction
Stadol
detox is treatment for addiction to Stadol®, the brand name for
butorphanol, an analgesic for moderate or severe pain. Administered every
3-4 hours either as a nasal spray or injected into the buttock or hip muscle
or into a vein, Stadol® is typically prescribed for patients recovering
from surgery or for migraine headaches. It works by binding to the pain
receptors in the brain.
Stadol Detox
Since Stadol® became available in nasal spray form,
abuse has increased, and more than 40 deaths have occurred. The FDA does
not regulate Stadol® in most states. Butorphanol is believed to be highly
addictive and if taken by a person already dependent on another narcotic,
withdrawal symptoms may occur. Stadol addiction can occur if care is
not taken to follow the doctor's instructions. Do not take a larger dose
of Stadol®, or take it more frequently, or take it for longer than the
doctor has prescribed.
Stadol detox can be difficult because the drug falls into the opiate
category (naturally occurring constituents of opium), causing both mental
and physical addiction. Opiates travel rapidly through the bloodstream to
the brain, where they stimulate opiate receptors, triggering intense feelings
of pleasure and reward. This quick high is followed a state of relaxation
and contentment that lasts for several hours. Concurrently, opiates act directly
on the respiratory center in the brainstem, causing a decrease in the breathing
rate of the user. When Stadol® and/or other opiate-derivative drugs are
used incorrectly, this breathing slow-down can be dangerous and even fatal.
Traditional methods of treatment for Stadol
addiction — talk therapy
along with medicinal treatment to lessen the pain of withdrawal—often
have low success rates (less than 10% after the first year). A newer and
quicker method of Stadol detox is Accelerated Neuro-Regulation (ANR),
formerly known as rapid detox. This rapid drug treatment, which is being
used with increasing success for opiate dependency, is also called the Waismann
Methodsm. It treats Stadol addiction as a physical disease that can
be overcome with advanced medical techniques. ANR eliminates the cravings
that often accompany traditional opiate detox treatments. The Waismann Methodsm
has been clinically proven to be effective for Stadol addiction.
During Darvocet detox using ANR or the Waismann Methodsm, the body’s
opiate receptors are cleansed of opiates while the patient is anaesthetized
and asleep. The goal is to rid the body of physical addiction: the patient
literally sleeps through physical withdrawal. The Waismann Methodsm reports
higher success rates in treating opiate addiction than do clinics utilizing
more traditional techniques.
